Before a Trip

Buying a tri-band phone
You can purchase a tri-band GSM phone through our website or from our local dealer with local SIM card activation. Get all the benefits of low-priced phone hardware because our local cellular carriers usually subsidize the handsets when you activate a new number. It is less expensive than buying the phone without local activation.

Get a local cellular phone number as your permanent personal phone number. Get a VoIP gateway access number and your personal PIN programmed into your phone for convenient dialing.
